Senior brass playing golf with former defence chief under investigation sends terribly wrong message in the middle of military’s sexual misconduct crisis

There has been a flood of cases, some years old, coming to light in 2021. There were female veterans and Forces members who testified at a parliamentary committee that those who come forward with allegations can expect to suffer more than that transgressors. And then, shockingly, there was the case of Major-General Peter Dawe, the now-suspended special forces commander who wrote a letter of reference for a soldier convicted of sexually assaulting a female soldier.

Military police launched an investigation after Global News reported in February on instances of alleged inappropriate sexual behaviour with two subordinates. Major Kellie Brennan said she had a long-standing sexual relationship with Mr. Vance while he was her superior, and a female corporal alleged Mr. Vance once sent her an e-mail in 2012 suggesting they go to a clothing-optional resort. Mr. Vance denied the allegations.

But Lt.-Gen. Rouleau and Vice-Adm. Baines are not free to act like his old buddies. They are the leaders of the Canadian Forces, who hold an equivalent rank to the Acting Chief of Defence Staff, Lieutenant-General Wayne Eyre. Lt.-Gen Rouleau is No. 2 in the Forces and the direct superior of the Canadian Forces provost marshal, who is in command of the military police.In short, if you wanted to convince women in the military and Canadians generally that the fix is in to clear Mr.

Now two more high-ranking officers who are supposed to be leading the military in rooting out sexual misconduct will face questions about whether they can remain in the Forces’ leadership ranks.

CAF, Sajjan look at 'next steps' after reports senior military leaders golfed with Vance amid misconduct probeThe Canadian Armed Forces is determining 'next steps' after being made aware that senior military leaders went golfing with former defence chief Gen. Jonathan Vance who is currently under military police investigation for alleged sexual misconduct. Sajjan and Vance did a great job with OP Honour... Or as they call it 'hop on her'!! The entitlement of rank gives them a sense of superiority and that they are untouchable, (example Williams) but 2021 says your not! Thank you karma. Ever hear of “Innocent till proven guilty “ Golf, they were playing golf. It's a game with little dimpled balls and clubs and holes and beer afterwards. It gives wives time to do other things. It's fun for everybody.
